Shayna Baszler choking Rey Mysterio
What has happened to Shayna Baszler on the main roster? After all of the promise of The Queen of Spades in NXT, her move to Monday Night RAW hasn't set the world alight.

Baszler has now failed to win The Royal Rumble, lost to Becky Lynch at WrestleMania, and then went missing towards the end of the Women's Money in the Bank ladder match.
The last real addition to the match that Baszler added was when she choked out Mysterio with the Kirofuda Clutch. But when Nia Jax, Lacey Evans, and Asuka were battling it out on the roof, Baszler was nowhere to be seen.
There was so much promise for Baszler to win the ladder match and then go on to challenge Becky Lynch once again so that she could gain a level of retribution. Instead, WWE decided to push Asuka, given her new gimmick, and now hope that The Empress of Tomorrow will be able to defeat Lynch once more, even though the feud between the two women only ended in January at the Royal Rumble.
